Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

[Jimmy]

this Chris chap doesn't seem to post a lot but just like many old-school forum users they rarely post, pom, however, is a Forum legend and his info was also backed up by rising goat lees fedora...so in a favour of 2/1 I deem the Angus singing news fact, thanks for coming to my Ted talk.

Given our history Chris should have the shorter odds.
Did Api approach the WTs to play under Madge?

Haha, I also realised I completely missed the point of your comment. Sorry.

'Our history', Tigers signing success rate... Got it. I agree.

Matt Duffy will probably have a blinder this week.

In reserves.

 

[supercoach]

Of course the club could now be leaking info saying we have no interest in Angus C to get the media off the trail. One thing for sure it’s never over till the fat lady sings. So till Pascoe sends out a press release, it’s all hear say

So POM not only indicated that we are progressed in talks with Angus Chrighton, but he also included the amount we have allegedly offered to lure him.

Chris on the other hand indicates we have not approached him at all.

Who did we accidently send our $2.2mill offer to....Matt Dufty?

A lot of variations but look at the wording -

1. We had a chat to Chrichton
2. We had a chat to Chrichton and made an offer to his manager
3. We had a chat to Chricthon, made an offer to his manager but the Roosters offered more $, new porcelains and a Potts Point penthouse Jacuzzi apartment near Dulcies.

Crichton not getting a contract offer from us and Doueihi still weeks away.

Sorry guys.

Have we signed Api or was that a hoax too

Small point all - its Angus Crichton (one H only)

His name has been spelt about 35 different ways over the last 35 pages of this thread.

Gould admitted his preference was to appoint a caretaker coach for the rest of the year before bringing in an experienced coach to lead the club from 2023.

‘A job for an experienced man’: Gould wants veteran coach to replace Barrett

Phil Gould has spoken about Trent Barrett’s decision to quit, and why he was not fibbing when he declared his job safe just two weeks ago.

www.smh.com.au

If that report is accurate and as Gould has stated, the club won’t be hiring a new coach until after this season, then it will make it even more difficult to recruit? Perhaps they need to shed players to be cap compliant?

Mail I have heard falls in line with The POM.

Offer going out to Crichton.

Doueihi has been taking place in contact drills at training in the last week, training at both 5/8 and centre.

Daine Laurie is also a chance of playing this Friday from what i have heard.

Whoops

It's a good point, I'm sure they'd want to manage the "optics"

There were a lot of people dressed up at Magic round.
maybe they offered the $2.2 mil to the guy dressed up as Lord Farquaad from Shrek.

What do you reckon the chances of Crichton are?

I have a feeling he will go to Rugby but I hope he signs here

Sounds like he contacted Madge, not the other way around. Keen for the coach and I imagine wanting some certainty around the length of his future tenure with the club.

 

[Wests_Tony]

Laurie is a great player - safe under the high ball, good pace, great passing and the type of player every club needs. I don't understand why you would want to move him on. It's not as though we are overrun with good NRL players like the Panthers.

I completely agree. So many people seem to have quickly forgotten he was one of our best last year. Had one bad game coming back from injury and people wanting to move him off. He's only young and will just get better. One of the very few Wests Tigers players with flair.

 

[Wokk_]

Really hoping we land Angus Creatine

 

[Long Term Fan]

Watching Papalii play for Parramatta over the weekend and scoring two tries has me very excited for 2023. Quality player and 2021 Second Rower of the year.
